Emotional Eating

Guilty as charged!! I have recognized that when I am a little down, I tend to eat more. Today, I was challenged with emotional eating. Certain things make me get in a 'funky-like' state and I have a little down. I went to lunch and was faced with wanting a thick, greasy cheeseburger. I stood there waiting my turn and then it came and I said, "Turkey on Pita with Swiss Cheese, please". Out it flowed... I enjoyed my lunch and I added some chips from Whole Foods on the side (eating the serving size). Still in a funk though, but at least I know that I am regaining my 'self-control'. :-)

I was telling one friend yesterday and one friend today that I am not seeing dramatic changes but my clothes are still fitting differently. I have a pair of capris that I can now pull off without unbuttoning them. They aren't falling off of me because my booty keeps them up, but its nice that I can do that again.

Just sharing another stepping stone; I tell you, this 'eating' or 'not eating what I want' thing is HARD!! I have 16 weeks and 1 before my trip and can lose up to 32 pounds (at a healthy 2 pounds per week). I am content with 20, but the scale is not cooperating. LOL. I have started back on Weight Watchers online to tally my points and control my eating habits.

I know I can do this; I just have to continue to have the confidence and will-power to do so.

Until next post, *Deuces* Jai-Nation citizens.
